Customer Reviews
Since the Windows Media Center days….
One of my favorite podcasts since the Green Button days. Keep up the great work Josh and Richard.
Come for the info and stay for Richard’s rant’s
Josh and Richard are great guys to listen to, have a really good rapport, and are very knowledgeable. I started listening when the focus of the show was Windows Media Center and Microsoft entertainment products and despite all of us having since moved on from those groundbreaking apps, I still find myself tuning in every week and joining the live chat when I can. Great show and I can’t recommend it enough.
Always Been a Great Podcast
Entertainment 2.0 has taken us from the error of media center PC's to cutting the cord. Josh and Richard give lots of great information.
